That has been so mostly on my part because I have such respect for him. On his part, because he does not deal in personalities. He deals in substance, and I congratulate him for that. I also want to thank the gentleman very much for looking at this issue, for realizing we were all going to accomplish the same objectives, and working with us to fashion a bill and an amendment that would accommodate that objective as quickly as possible." @ PoliticalQuotes.com

I have not always agreed with Mr. Penny, but we have always disagreed I think with honesty and with good demeanor. That has been so mostly on my part because I have such respect for him. On his part, because he does not deal in personalities. He deals in substance, and I congratulate him for that. I also want to thank the gentleman very much for looking at this issue, for realizing we were all going to accomplish the same objectives, and working with us to fashion a bill and an amendment that would accommodate that objective as quickly as possible.
